I want to promote health. Not just through nutrition and lifestyle, but also educate about healthy fertility, making healthy babies, and breastfeeding those healthy babies. The ‘health’ that the world promotes is backwards and I realise that I am only one woman, but through self education and promoting the right information to others, perhaps we can encourage a population to become a healthy woman.
About the Author of Healthy Woman
I am Helen. I am 44, mother to 19 month old Grace (gave birth just before 42nd birthday), and wife to Christian. I’m into my second natural pregnancy, conceived while still breastfeeding, and I’m looking forward to standing my ground with the NHS, avoiding ultrasounds again, and breastfeeding our loved one in the womb come the time when they want to appear.
It was shocking to discover that the NHS now recommend no foods high in vitamin A, which means liver and cod liver oil, saying that it ‘may’ cause birth defects, but they never actually provide any evidence of their findings. How did it become that the NHS has become some kind of a god when it comes to health knowledge. I mean these midwives and nurses were most likely born to mothers who ATE liver products during their pregnancy, and do they even think twice about the advice they give to pregnant women.
Come on girls, these are OUR BELOVED BABIES, they deserve the best nutrition, to be protected in the womb from harmful non ionising radiation that is called prenatal ultrasound, and they most certainly do not need jabs. The vaccine industry needs to use fear to get compliance from pregnant women, but if you do your own research during your pregnancy, listen to your body, stay worry free, stand your ground, there is nothing to fear with pregnancy. It’s a beautiful process. It’s an absolute blessing to experience childbirth, even though it’s very painful.
Even though I wanted a home birth with Grace, God had other plans. I had a precipitate labour and Grace was born within three hours from my first morning contraction. Even though I avoided the 12 week ultrasound, and instead asked if I was carrying a viable pregnancy, which took about thirty seconds through the ultrasound, and the 20 week anomaly scan, I was looked upon as ‘non compliant’ by the NHS, but I had read some interesting books that are not common knowledge within the NHS, and I stood my ground throughout, even though at 35 weeks we hired a doula and I put in a huge complaint to the NHS regarding my lack of support of my birth plan.
My entire pregnancy story can be found on my Medium page.
I’ll be linking to plenty of helpful books, blog posts, and helpful podcasts.
To become a healthy woman of our society, we must unravel the truths that this world has fed us, and educate ourselves into better health for our bodies, our fertility, our babies, and ongoing health.
